iPod Cases made from 45 RPM Records
Now here’s a case for your iPod that is actually interesting and looks unique. These cases are made from old 45s, with a plexiglass window and a cork liner. You have to love this merging of the old format with the new. It just makes sense. And looks damn good.
I love how you can line up the record label in various ways and the center hole of the record is lined up with the iPod’s scroll wheel of course. These awesome cases were made by Contexture Design, but sadly they are completely sold out of the 45 cases right now. You can see why.
Great idea. Probably one of the most unique iPod cases we’ve seen. We hope they start making more real soon.
FLACTRON Re-nano titanium case
You might think a case made of titanium for your iPod nano seems silly until it takes a bullet for you in your next gun fight, and I’m sure that’s what the makers of the FLACTRON Re-nano were thinking, too.
This case fits your iPod nano snugly and safely protecting it from any harm due to dropping, throwing, stomping or medium sized explosions. The controls are still exposed along with the screen and ports so normal operation is possible, and pretty much negates the protection features, but it looks so clean and shiny.
This titanium nano case runs about $818 according to Engadget, but hey, you can’t put a price your safety. If this one seems too pricey you can maybe try to get a cheap metal cases at Uxsight.com
Most Expensive iPod Touch 2G Cases
Is your iPod impressive enough for you? Do you find that, half a year after the popular iPod first hit the market, it’s just a little too pedestrian? If you answered “Yes!” to either of those questions, then Case-mate has a solution for you. It’s not exactly an innovative solution. In fact, it’s the solution we’ve come to expect from the luxury gadget industry—just cover the thing in gold and diamonds.
The Case-mate Diamond Case, the most expensive iPod Touch 2G Cases in the world, is 18K gold set with 42 diamonds (3.5 carats). The diamonds are VVS1 clarity, which is only two grades down from “Flawless” according to the Gemological Institute of America, and H color, which actually means they lack color. The handcrafted case is also made with Carbon Fiber leather, more commonly used in high end aftermarket cars. Well, maybe “commonly” isn’t the best word.
The world’s most expensive iPod Touch 2G Cases will set you back $20,000 unless you were the lucky person who was given one for free at Macworld. Expected delivery time is 4-6 weeks, but shipping is free.
